o.k. so here it is,,,, i just set up my 75 display with a 29 fuge.. i did a freshwater test to see how the plumbing and all was, and there was no problem. so tonight i put all of my LR (80-ish pounds) in and filled it up with saltwater..... crap i now have millions of micro bubbles.... y did they not apear with fresh water and even more important to me... how do i stop the madness.
